I can't find the CPU temperatures for my iMac. I have a late 2012 iMac with an i7 3.4ghz CPU. Both the iStat Pro or iStat menus will not report any CPU core temperatures. The only temperature is "CPU Proximity", which maybe is the heatsink..? Any way to fix this?

Thanks.

Some fixes need to be applied to make iStat Pro run properly on ML. You can download the fixed app here.

Then that means the CPU heat sensor is not in properly or their is a problem with he sensor itself. Go to Apple to get it fixed.

Seriously, it could be a failed or disconnected sensor on the logic board. I'd take it to Apple and let them diagnose it.

One more reason why your robot responses should go away. Next time actual take time to analyze before posting. This is my last post on this thread about said issue. Further saying anything will be reported as thread hijacking.

Thanks for the replies, it can't be a broken sensor, because I use HDInfo64 in Windows 7 (bootcamp), and this program reports individual temperatures for all 4 CPU cores.
Maybe it's an issue with the latest iMac model - not being properly supported yet by these system monitoring programs? Anyone with a late 2012 iMac who could confirm this?

There were no "robot responses" in this thread. I suggested the same thing you did, that a sensor failure or connection may be the source of the problem. You post your way and I'll post mine.

That is possible, which is why I recommended the "tweaked" version of iStat Pro. It corrected 2 or 3 issues, but I don't recall if CPU temps was one of them. Those reporting apps get their information directly from your Mac, though, so I'm not sure why temps would show on Windows but not on OS X.

Puh, seems it's a software support issue. I purchased Temperature Gauge by Tunabelly Software, and here I can see all the CPU temperature readings. Was a bit worried there for a while.. I'm sure it's a new main logic board that's causing the lack of CPU readings in some programs.
Sent an email to the guy who made iStat Menus about this issue. Hopefully he will fix it soon.

hi, i noticed the same issue with my late 2012 iMac, no temp reading works even tried magician paster, does temperature gauge work perfectly?
